Article Abstract
In this paper, we present an approach for enhancing the safety of artificially ventilated patients using ambient process analysis. We propose to use an analysis system consisting of low-cost ambient sensors such as power sensor, RGB-D sensor, passage detector, and matrix infrared temperature sensor to reduce risks for artificially ventilated patients in both home and clinical environments. We describe the system concept and our implementation and show how the system can contribute to patient safety.

The PROtective VEntilation (PROVE) Network is a globally-recognized collaborative research group dedicated to advancing research, education, and collaboration in the field of mechanical ventilation. Established to address critical questions in intraoperative and intensive care ventilation, the network focuses on improving outcomes for patients undergoing mechanical ventilation in diverse settings, including operating rooms, intensive care units, burn units, and resource-limited environments in low- and middle-income countries. The PROVE Network is committed to generating high-quality evidence through a comprehensive portfolio of investigations, including randomized clinical trials, observational research, and meta-analyses.

Mean airway pressure, a monitored variable continuously available on the modern ventilator, is the pressure measured at the airway opening averaged over the time needed to complete the entire respiratory cycle. Mean airway pressure is well recognized to connect three key physiologic processes in mechanical ventilation: physical stretch, cardiovascular dynamics, and pulmonary gas exchange. Although other parameters currently employed in adults to determine "safe" ventilation are undoubtedly valuable for daily practice, all have limitations for continuous monitoring of ventilation hazard.

Background: Point-of-care ultrasonography has become a valuable tool for assessing diaphragmatic function in critically ill patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation. However, conventional diaphragm ultrasound assessment remains highly operator-dependent and subjective. Previous research introduced automatic measurement of diaphragmatic excursion and velocity using 2D speckle-tracking technology.

Severe pneumonia frequently necessitates intensive care, with mechanical ventilation serving as a cornerstone of treatment. Despite its life-saving benefits, ventilator weaning poses considerable challenges and is often associated with complications. This study evaluates the efficacy of a tailored nursing approach in enhancing weaning outcomes and accelerating pulmonary recovery.

Background: Limited evidence exists on the additive risk of bradycardia in children with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis receiving dexmedetomidine (DMED). We aim to study the association between RSV bronchiolitis and bradycardia during DMED administration.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 273 children under 2 years old admitted to the intensive care units at Boston Children's Hospital with severe bronchiolitis and sedated with DMED from 2009 to 2022.
